Since manual and fun seem to be your top priorities, I'd knock the RS3 off the list. As for the GT350, I was cross shopping one with my previous M2C; there's a reason Ford doesn't make them anymore. Since the C7 and GT350 are used, I would swap the G87 for an F87 Comp and you could pick one up soon instead of waiting on a G87 to be announced AND built. I have no experience with the C7, but my dad has a tuned C6 GS and it's fun, makes 420 wheel with some basic bolt ons. I wouldn't swap it for my F80 but it is a good time for sure. I'm just not a Corvette guy I guess.

This would be my list (in order) while incorporating your list:
Cadillac CT4V Blackwing
F87 M2 Comp
718 Cayman S or T
C7 GS or Z06
Mustang Mach1
Camaro ZL1

Obviously the CT4 has 4 doors and a backseat, but they're just so darn cool, it's at the top of my list. Cross shopped one with a used F80, almost bought one but dealer markups killed it for me. Also, 4 doors with 5 seats is very practical. I use my F80 to haul my mountain bike around, just pop the seats down and there is a TON of room.
